The Glide APIv2 is a RESTful API that allows you to programmatically interact with the Glide platform. These are the developer docs for version 2 of the API, initially released in July of 2024.

This API is currently in a public alpha state. Feedback is welcome. However, please be aware that breaking changes are expected!

Functionality

This version of the Glide API only accesses Big Table data sources. An attempt to use this API with any other data source will return an error.

Previous Versions

This Glide API v2 differs from previous versions in that it:

  • Is the most performant way to programatically interact with Big Tables
  • Is capable of ingesting much larger data sets through the use of stashing
  • Does not require application scoping (i.e., no appId is required)
  • Only operates on Big Tables data sources
